Hi,

I have a bitmap in the library that is exported for actionscript (pricingQuote)

var testy:Bitmap= new pricingQuote(100, 100);  
addChild(testy);

without the two variabes I get  
Argument count mismatch on pricingQuote(). Expected 2, got 0.

with them I get

Type Coercion failed: cannot convert pricingQuote@413d63a1 to flash.display.Bitmap.

All I want to do is add the bitmap at it’s actual size. Do I really need the size parameters.

I **could** wrap it in a movieclip but I would prefer to just add it like any other asset.

Thanks.
